Well...with the new by-law being implemented on July 1, 2014...it seems that there is now a new low of stealing Herby Curby garbage containers. The cost of a large 96 gal Hurby Curby is $149.99 plus tax to purchase, which most families would need.... but a mere $5.99 (plus tax) to rent monthly.
The push is on to make sure you have a container that meets regulation or your garbage will not be picked up. We have lived in our home for 25 years and slowly but surely the neighbourhood is being taken over by rental units where landlords do NOT provide the proper refuse containers for their tenants..which has seemed to lead, unfortunately, to a rise in theft of personal property.
So, word to the wise...if you have a Herby Curby, you might want to make sure it is in a secure place that it cannot be taken. It will now cost us money to replace ours.
